Mini in the Mail #66: "Tangled Roots"

"Tangled Roots," 5x5in., oil on masonite

My 66th mini painting, this of a giant ficus in noir, towering in all directions, its canopy sheltering half a block, and proclamations of love graffitied into its smooth bark. Its roots overflow, entangle, unsettle, like a pit of pythons.
